Rosemary Shrager recently turned to Instagram to share her troubling experience of being scammed twice, explaining her recent absence from social media.

The 74-year-old British chef confessed to facing a “challenging time” and described feeling particularly “vulnerable” due to the scams.

Without delving into specifics, Rosemary expressed her apologies for her silence, stating, “I’m sorry for being so quiet lately. It’s been a challenging period as I’ve been scammed quite severely.”

She continued, “I won’t go into details right now, but it’s been a lot to handle. Having been scammed twice, I’ve felt incredibly vulnerable, and it hasn’t been a pleasant experience.”

Rosemary admitted, “I’ve struggled to share much because of how genuinely upset I’ve been. It’s affected me more than I anticipated, leaving me feeling terrible for falling victim to such schemes—it’s been a truly unpleasant ordeal.”

However, she reassured her followers, saying, “I’m feeling much better now and moving forward. I’ve adjusted to the situation, but I urge everyone to be extremely cautious out there.”

Zoe Ball, who has previously been scammed, share her support in the comments section: ‘sending you so much love Rosemary ❤️’ 

Zoe has previously warned fans after her experience of scammers. Rochelle Humes and Rylan Clark have also been victims of fraudsters.

Last year, Zoe warned fans of a scam where fraudsters used AI pictures of her face to con people out of thousands of pounds.

Zoe shared that scammers are creating fake headlines and articles that she has invested money into a financial scheme which has gained a lot of money.

But in reality, the fake account is actually made to lure people into investing money in a fraudulent crypto investment website, which is then stolen by the con artists.

Speaking to hosts Helen Skelton and Gethin Jones, Zoe said: ‘Basically I’m not really on Facebook but lots of my listeners have drawn me to the attention of this story.

‘There are some kind of posts going up on these Facebooks luring people in with these headlines, something about Zoe Ball shame. 

‘A lot of people are calling it Apex AI I think and it’s making out that I’ve invested some money into this financial scheme and done quite well from it. 

‘And then it’s encouraging people who follow me to do the same.  I’ve had so many people getting in touch asking if it’s a real thing. 

‘Many of whom have actually given their details across and then they’ve had phone calls and follow ups. I am absolutely nothing to do with this, it is a complete scam and I’m really quite concerned about people being conned out of their money.’

Speaking to journalist Camilla Tominey, Rochelle and Rylan also previously confirmed on This Morning that they have also been victims of AI fraud on many occasions.

Camilla said: ‘Both of you could have their head superimposed onto anything.’

Rochelle responded: ‘Oh oh, that’s happened several times.’

Rylan added: ‘We can see on Facebook pictures of me or Roch or Emma Willis in handcuffs with the police saying “she knew it would catch up with her” and it’s like a fake story. Like when did I get arrested?’

Camilla added: ‘This needs to be regulated.’
